Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ohio Archaeological and Historical Quarterly, Vol. 31: January, 1922 There were fifty-seven separate sections in the procession, representing various phases of pioneer life and prominent incidents in the eventful early history of Bucyrus and Crawford County. The first section represented the "Spirit of 76" and was contributed by the American Legion, which figured prominently through the entire celebration. There were many representations of Indians - Indians on the move, Indian squaws at work, Indian dances, Indians on ponies, Indian chiefs in council, etc. Colonel Crawford, of course, occupied a prominent place. There were sections representing his family his cavalrymen, his capture by the Indians and his tragic burning at the stake. Johnny Appleseed was appropriately remembered. Early farming implements were in evidence. The founders of the city, Samuel Norton and Colonel James Kilbourne, were honored in a number of floats. Different organizations of Bucyrus and the townships of Crawford County contributed sections of this wonderful pageant and the present generation had a rare opportunity to witness the past history of this region move by in pleasing variety and progressive succession. A center of special interest throughout the celebration was the Public Library of Bucyrus, where a really wonderful display of relics and souvenirs representing the entire history of Crawford County was on exhibition. These were systematically arranged with appropriate labels. A continuous stream of people passed through the building and enjoyed the opportunity to visit this exhibit. The celebration did much not only to revive interest in the past but to arouse local pride in present achievement.
